“…Moreover, CDKN2A mutations that account for 50 % of cases with FAM-M syndrome [ 51 ] have not been observed in patients with uveal melanoma [ 52 ]. Although uveal and cutaneous melanoma can occur in the absence of FAM-M syndrome [ 53 ], it would be prudent to exclude such a possibility.…”

“…12), DEC 2011 WWW.ARCHDERMATOL.COM 1398 has been debated as a risk factor for ocular melanoma. 32,33 Given that the risk of ocular melanoma is not increased following CM, 33 surveillance bias may better explain the increased incidence of CM following ocular melanoma. Many physicians believe in a common risk factor between ocular and cutaneous melanoma and may examine patients with ocular melanoma more thoroughly for any skin lesions.…”

To understand the risk of cutaneous melanoma (CM) following a previous cancer.Design: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (1988)(1989)(1990)(1991)(1992)(1993)(1994)(1995)(1996)(1997)(1998)(1999)(2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007), we compared a cohort of patients diagnosed as having CM as a first cancer with a cohort of patients diagnosed as having CM following a previous cancer.Participants : We included 70 819 patients with CM as a first primary cancer and 6353 patients with CM following a previous cancer. Main Outcome Measures:We calculated the relative risk (RR) for development of primary CM following a previous cancer and used Cox modeling to examine survival characteristics of the 2 cohorts.Results: Patients younger than 45 years at first cancer diagnosis had significantly higher risk of CM following
